Feature requests

[Deacon Crusher]

Here's a few requests.

1... organize recorded shows in folders
Is there a way to get the shows that get recorded subcategorized by folder, with the folder name being the show name? Then specify that individual recordings get named by episode number and episode name?

I use Sage on my PC, but then have a Hauppauge mediamvp hooked to my TV for playback of recorded shows.

The mediamvp shows all files in the recorded shows directory in one huge list. If there were sub folders it would be much easier to switch between different shows. Also, and this is more of a shorcoming of the mediamvp it has a limited number of characters it shows for program names so if the actual file name was just episode number and episode name instead of show name, episode name it would be easier to browse through them and know what you are looking at.

2... Let there be functionality in Sage to mount a DVD image file and then play it back. I Copy/rip entire DVDs to hard drive (easier and easier to do with new software and huge hard drives) and would like to be able to play back from that image without first having to mount the iso using some seperate app and then make sure that new drive letter is being monitored by sage as a place to play DVDs from.

3... Easy commercial skipping.

4... Have Sage be able to better handle end user reorganization of hard drives. I'd like to be able to move sets of shows out of my recorded files destination folder and still have Sage know about them and keep the full show info available.

Thanks

Some of those get requested a lot (most actually), but two of them can be done right now:

If you rip them as files (VIDEO_TS\*) then sage can play them directly. DVD Shrink can rip the movie only and create the structure Sage (and most other apps) looks for in one step.

3... Easy commercial skipping.
